In India, Tecno has been giving hints about the Pova 5 line of smartphones for the past few days. Reports say that the company may come out with two phones, the Pova 5 and the Pova 5 Pro. In a new preview, the company showed off the Pova 5 series’ notification LED unit that faces the back.
The Glyph interface is the name for the LED warning unit on the back of the Nothing Phone (1) and Phone (2). In the same way, the back of the Pova 5 series will have a unique LED design called the Arc interface.

Tecno says that the Arc interface can use different colors that light up when a call comes in. It looks like the LED unit can light up to show things like charging state or alerts, but this hasn’t been confirmed by the company.
The Tecno Pova 5 just came out on the world market, but the Pro form hasn’t come out yet. It does not look like the Pova 5 has an Arc interface. So, it looks like the feature in question might only be offered on the Pro model.
